I discovered them online and marveled at their selection of rather rare toys at really excellent prices (not to mention I love their selection of gently used toys, too- I hate seeing perfectly good toys thrown out when other children can be enjoying them). Since I live on the other end of the country, I had some questions before purchasing. The staff were SO kind and knowledgeable, got back to me very quickly (over and over again- sorry, guys!) and went out of their way to help. I cannot recommend Toy Heaven enough, I will certainly buy more from them in the future. On behalf of me and my 4-year-old daughter- THANK YOU!!

Forget the big box stores, go to this great little independent boutique. Although the space is…read moresmall, it is crammed full of novelties, toys and childrens items. They have a great selection of puzzles, board games, lego, collectable figures, travel games, brain teasers, models, classic toys and more. They also have some great science learning toys like a salt water/magnesium reaction powered model car. Its a science lesson and a toy at the same time! Anyway thats just one example of that type of item that they stock. The mindless toys are entertaining but your kid will get so much more out of a constructive teaching toy. The staff is super nice and helpful and the store is open Sundays which seems to be a rarity in C-Town. Highly recommended.

No, he's not still into action figures or anything like that, but he loves boardgames, and let's face it - as a former nanny, I still love looking at toys. While on our way to get groceries on Sunday we spotted this toy store and had to check it out. Kaitlyn C is right on the money saying she was blown away when she walked in. This place is somewhere in between Mrs. Tiggy Winkles and Toys R Us. It's not as massive as Toys R Us, but has a great selection. While it's not as trendy as Mrs. Tiggy Winkles (particularly their Lost Marbles section), it's still fantastic. I was really impressed with the variety of things we saw there, as well as the cleanliness and organization of the store. We were also asked a few times if we needed help but friendly, young employees. Their boardgame selection isn't huge, but they do have a few of the Settlers of Catan expansion packs, as well as some other popular games like Pandemic, Scrabble, Monopoloy and quite a few other fun games. The selection is certainly geared toward younger kids with lots of 3 and up games. They have a HUGE selection of puzzles as well. Where I thought this place was simply fantastic was the amount of educational games they have. There's a massive wall of Science and Discovery activities and an amazing selection of children's books. They also have a pretty fantastic dress up selection, some fun old school games. I'm absolutely coming here next time I get the wee ones in my life a present. If you have kids, I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you've got a birthday party to go to, or want to pick them up a special gift. Your kids will LOVE it! The prices seemed very fair and on par with Toys R Us.

I'd seen the first of these stores in Kanata but hadn't checked it out yet. When this one opened,…read moremy sister and I decided to take a visit. We were pretty much blown away. The place seemed a lot bigger than it did when it was used as a Spirit Halloween store and the space was filled with almost every kind of toy you can imagine. They had everything from scooters to LEGO to baby dolls. While it isn't as big as Toys R Us and does not offer quite the same amount or selection of merchandise (especially licensed items), it was just as well, if not more organized and still had quite a nice selection. My sister and I really enjoyed the book section. They had books for all ages of kids and they had quite a few the two of us remembered from our childhood. All in all, it's a really neat place to visit, especially if you have kids or even if you're a kid at heart.

I used to be a frequent customer of Toys On Fire, until they cancelled an important pre-order I had…read moremade several months prior to the release date of the product. I was in constant contact with staff, inquiring about the status, to which they informed me there would be no issues to speak of and not to worry... they guaranteed the item I had ordered would be available. Low and behold, the item I pre-ordered was popular... the staff knew this. Shortly prior to the release date, I found it odd to find the now 'SOLD OUT' pre-order listed at double the price on their website. When I inquired, they informed me that the item would be delayed by a month but not to worry, they were working with the distributor, to make sure I would receive what I had ordered. A month later, I received a statement from staff that my item was now cancelled. They weren't exactly apologetic and seemed to think I would simply tolerate their barrage of lies and having wasted so much of my time. It was through fellow collectors that I discovered the unfortunate fact that when ToysOnFire discovers that an item is highly sought after, they will simply cancel your pre-order and inflate the price of the item in-store... this is what happened with my order. Ridiculous and shady business practices. As such, I have been advising every collector I know to AVOID Toys On Fire stores, both in-person and online. Why continue supporting local shops, when they conduct business this way? Almost every product Toys On Fire offers can be found via online retailers like Amazon & Toys R Us with free shipping and at less-inflated prices. Toys On Fire engages in price-scalping and as all collector's know, the only way to battle price-scalping is to cease supporting it altogether. Take my advice and shop around... there are far more options out there than Toys On Fire, from companies that won't make false guarantees or waste months of your time.

There's no food or snacks but the other things make up for the loss of Tokyo Store on Elgin street a couple of years back. Come check out the store yourself!
